Julia Reichert was an Oscar-winning filmmaker, a feminist, a fighter and a much-admired activist. We are truly sad to hear about the passing of the “godmother of American independent documentaries.” 🖤 #juliareichert

David Henry Gerson joins the @NEAarts podcast to talk about his documentary, The Story Won't Die, which spotlights 8 Syrian refugee artists whose work wrestles w/ the "nostalgia for home & horrors of home that can only be accessed in art."
